You don’t have to be a star to shine.

Sae has always been taller and stronger than the average girl. Koki used to be smaller and weaker than the average boy. But now that he’s in high school, he’s tall and super popular! Will their childhood friendship rekindle…and maybe develop into something more?

The news that Sae and Koki are dating spreads like wildfire through the school, but not everyone is on board. When their friend group becomes a study group and two members find they have a lot in common, another gets jealous. Then, Christmastime arrives, and everyone has an opinion on what Sae and Koki should gift each other. Will they choose wisely…?

A Star Brighter than the Sun, Vol. 6 by Kazune Kawahara explores these intriguing dynamics with a touch of humour and heartwarming moments.
